Re: [DML] T-Bar Discoloration

["doctor who" <ohwrd@xxxx>]

I have used the green 3M scotchbrite pads to clean stainless steel for many 
years. They were designed for cleaning food service stainless and are 
nothing like sandpaper (although the texture may feel rough to your skin). I 
have food service grade stainless countertops and even after the hardest 
scrubdown after a stubborn mess, the original factory brushwork is there and 
the mess is not.

I'm not a metallurgirst and obviously the choice is yours, but Joe did make 
the reccomendation, and based on my experience w/those pads I would have to 
agree w/him, I think they'll work w/out any damage.

Hi Joe,

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't taking something abrasive like a
scotch-brite pad something that is not recommended for the T-bars. It
was my understanding that due any scratches would develop into fractures
that will eventually lead the bars snapping. I'm game to try it as
trying to mask off the area and paint them isn't my idea of fun, but I
just wanted to put this question out there. I know that a Scotch-Brite
pad is no where near as abrasive as sandpaper but is it soft enough to
not damage the t-bar?

The other question is, why would this area turn brown like rust?

Thanks for the advise
